Clancy's is a far cry from its former life as a beloved neighborhood po'boy shop from the 1940s. It's still a family affair, owned by former employee Brad Hollingsworth and run by his family, but that's where the similarities end. A man in a tuxedo will greet you upon arrival, welcoming you to an upscale setting complete with uniformed servers and white tablecloths. 
The kitchen delivers on its promise of refined Creole cuisine, and the menu is seafood focused with plenty of French and Cajun influences. Begin with their signature appetizer of fried oysters with brie, then move on to the chicken and andouille sausage gumbo. Fried, smoked softshell crab with meunière sauce is yet another Clancy's signature that impresses.
